CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A MOTORIZED CLOSURE ELEMENT ARRANGEMENT OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

Disclosed herein is a control system for driving a motorized closure element arrangement of a vehicle, wherein at least one linear distance sensor, is provided in order to detect operator control events in the form of operator movement cycles, wherein, as part of an operator control event monitoring process, a control arrangement monitors the at least one distance sensor in order to check whether a predetermined operator control event is present, wherein a longitudinal movement of a body part of an operator in the longitudinal direction can additionally be detected by means of the at least one distance sensor. It is proposed that the control arrangement detects a predetermined longitudinal movement cycle, which runs in the longitudinal direction, of a body part of an operator as an operator control event as part of the operator control event monitoring process and drives the closure element arrangement in response.

1. A control system for driving a motorized closure element arrangement of a motor vehicle, wherein at least one linear distance sensor, which measures distances transverse to its local extent and passes over an elongate sensor region in a longitudinal direction, is provided in order to detect operator control events in the form of operator movement cycles, wherein, as part of an operator control event monitoring process, a control arrangement monitors the at least one distance sensor in order to check whether a predetermined operator control event is present, wherein a longitudinal movement of a body part of an operator in the longitudinal direction can additionally be detected by means of the at least one distance sensor,
wherein the control arrangement detects a predetermined longitudinal movement cycle, which runs in the longitudinal direction of a body part of an operator as an operator control event as part of the operator control event monitoring process, and drives the closure element arrangement in response, and in that at least one distance sensor, for the purpose of longitudinal movement detection, has a sensor configuration which changes periodically along the longitudinal direction with a period length, so that the body part of the operator which moves in the longitudinal direction generates changing sensor measurement values of the distance sensor, and in that the period length corresponds at least to the extent of the longitudinal movement cycle in the longitudinal direction.
